The Polk County Board of Equalization unanimously approved tax list correction #1004, removing taxes from a parcel the Village of Shelby bought in 2024 after county records were not updated to reflect its tax-exempt status. The vote was 3–0.
Chairman Jerry Westring convened the Polk County Board of Equalization in Osceola at 9:00 a.m. on March 25, 2025, and noted that a current copy of the Open Meetings Act was posted in the meeting room. The board approved the minutes of its March 4 meeting before taking up business.
